Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment.
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review and staff interview the facility failed to ensure comprehensive assessments were
accurate. This affected two of two residents (Residents #28 and #64) reviewed for hospice services. The
facility census was 72.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
1. Review of Resident #28's medical record revealed an admission date of 03/22/19 with diagnosis that
included chronic kidney disease, hypertension and anxiety. Further review of the medical record revealed
on 01/12/24 the resident was placed under hospice services. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0
significant change assessment with a reference date of 01/12/24 indicated the resident was receiving
hospice services. Further review of the MDS assessment revealed no evidence of a life expectancy of six
months or less.
Review of Resident #28's hospice certification revealed the hospice physician indicated the resident had a
life expectancy of six months or less.
On 02/15/24 at 8:20 A.M., interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #153 verified the significant MDS did not
identify a life expectancy of six months or less as stated by the hospice physician in Resident #28's hospice
certification.
2. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #64 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included respiratory failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, alpha-1-antitypsin deficiency,
emphysema, protein-calorie malnutrition, constipation (06/28/23) and hypertension.
Review of the physician's orders dated 12/28/23 revealed the resident was placed under hospice services.
Review of the significant change Minimum Data Set assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #64 had
intact cognition. She received hosice services however, her assessment indicated she did not have a
prognosis of less than six months.
On 02/14/24 at 4:41 P.M. an interview with Registered Nurse #153 revealed she had completed a
significant change Minimum Data Set assessment for Resident #64 due to her receiving hospice care. The
RN verified the MDS did not indicate the resident had a life expectancy of less than six months despite the
physician signed hospice certification.

or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on

Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for January 2024 revealed Resident #64 was given
Colace 100 mg on 01/02/24 and 01/07/24 but the medication was ineffective.
Review of the progress notes dated 01/08/24 at 4:41 P.M. revealed Resident #64 refused medication for
constipation despite education of risks and benefits. Her abdomen was non-distended with hypoactive
bowel sounds. (The progress note did not indicate what medication for constipation Resident #64 refused).
Review of the progress note dated 01/12/24 at 3:35 P.M. revealed hospice was called in regards to
Resident #64 not having a BM and refusing to take any oral medication to help alleviate it.
Review of the progress notes dated 01/12/24 at 4:00 P.M. revealed Resident #64 was having trouble
moving her bowels. She was stating to the nursing assistants she just wants the BM to fall out and not have
to worry about going. She was offered Colace and refused stating she just wanted a little orange colored pill
(bisacodyl).
Review of the physician's order dated 01/12/24 revealed Resident #64 had an order to give bisacodyl five or
10 mg tablet once daily as needed for constipation.
Review of the January Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed the resident was administered
bisacodyl on 01/12/24, which was ineffective, a bisacodyl 10 mg suppository on 01/13/24 and 01/15/24
which were effective.
On 02/13/24 at 8:00 A.M. an interview with Resident #64 revealed she had been having trouble with
constipation because the nurse (Licensed Practical Nurse #156) would not give her a Dulcolax (bisacodyl)
pill when she asked for one. The resident stated she told the nurse she was having severe abdominal pain
because she had not had a bowel movement since she had returned from the hospital, she was not sure
how many days it had been. She stated the nurse brought in her MOM but she told the nurse she did not
want it because it did not work for her. She stated the nurse just mumbled something to her, went out of the
room, and never tried to give her anything else. She stated she got upset and called for the nurse to come
back in her room. She stated she asked the nurse what she said, and the nurse told her they had a bowel
protocol they must follow for constipation, and they could not just give her a bisacodyl. The resident stated
she knew the MOM was not going to work fast enough so she did not want it and they would not give her
anything else. She stated they had not done anything for a couple days and she was having severe
abdominal pain. She stated she only refused the MOM but it was the only laxative the nurse offered.
On 02/14/24 at 3:20 P.M. an interview with Regional Compliance Nurse #200 confirmed there was no
documentation of Resident #64 having a BM from 12/29/23 to 01/12/24.
Multiple attempts to reach LPN #156 were unsuccessful.
Review of the facility policy titled, Bowel Management and Treatment, dated 04/03/17 revealed the purpose
was to achieve control of bowel evacuation on a routine basis which may be indicated by an independent or
assisted stool every two to three days to avoid constipation and prevent skin irritation.
Residents who have not had a movement for three consecutive days would have the following protocol
initiated unless the resident had individual orders specific to bowel management.
